1 Why is the water from rivers so useful to people
2 Why does the river say it has "two faces"
Because it's fresh. People can drink it and use it for farming, and washing.
Because it gives life when it provides fresh water, but it can also be dangerous when it floods.
3 What are the living conditions like in the desert
The desert is very hot during the day and very cold at night. There is little rain, so it is hard to live there.
4 Why do people call the earth the "Blue Planet"
The Earth is called the "Blue Planet" because the ocean covers more than two-thirds of the earth’s surface.
5 What colours do forests usually wear in summer and autumn
In summer, forests are usually green, and in autumn, they are usually golden brown.
